Blómudalurin

Niviaq Korneliussen

In Greenland, the suicide rate of young people has been so high that people have compared it to a pandemic. Everyone knows someone who has taken their own life. "Blómudalurin" tells the story of what it is like to live in the aftermath of these deaths, which impacts everyone but nobody talks about it. Suicide has become an unbearable normalcy that nobody is responsible for.

Families are unable to talk about it, and there is no help to be found in the public sector.

What is my name...
I have no name...
I am just a number...

She experienced the first suicide when she was thirteen. She wants to be buried among the tall mountains of Tasiilaq, where the nameless graves in the Flower Valley are hidden beneath blue, crimson and pink plastic flowers that yell out of the white snow.

She has a girlfriend that she loves. She has a family that cares about her. She has been accepted to the University of Aarhus. The world is open, but nothing feels right, and gradually, her world closes in around her.

And the countdown begins.
